The problem here is that:
- sun-java6-plugin does not have a license prompt
- sun-java6-bin has one

sun-java6-plugin is unpacked, then sun-java6-bin. The later asks in its preinst 
script for the license, that 
is declined. The -bin package is not installed (correctly). But the 
sun-java6-plugin package is unpacked and 
the system wants to fix -plugin by installing -bin which will fail because the 
user declined the license.

The easiest fix is to ask in -plugins for the license as well to ensure if the 
user does not accept it, he/she
will not have -plugins unpacked on the system. I attach a patch for this.
